BACK TO LIFE
bbc 3 uk.
Six part series-1 is a fine piece of work, emotionally pleasing and the best of 2019 English storytelling. The whole air of the series is faded , edge of nation , small town claustrophobia, with amusing lines and situations and characters. Evocative coastline views and the quiet mundane details of English small town life.
Perfect length, 6 half hour episodes to tell the simple story. Some annoyances like the hapless useless investigator. The flaw is that truth at the centre of the story is unlikely to have remained hidden for 18 years, but one must overlook that. Great performances by Daisy Haggard, Geraldine James, Richard Durden, Jo Martin.
